For Valentine’s Josh and I celebrated on Saturday night.  We got a babysitter and went to 131 Main in Biltmore Park and then to the movies to see “The Vow” We had a fun date night.  On actual Valentine’s Day Addison started throwing up the night before and then through the night into the next day.  So it didn’t start out too well and then Linda (Nana) was sick also.  So I stayed home and kept the girls half the day and then took them to Linda's around noon.  Linda and the girls made cupcakes and had a lot of fun doing that.  Then after Jeff, Josh and I got off work  we went to Linda's.  I picked up hot subs and pizza and we celebrated inside versus going out to a nice dinner since everyone was under the weather.  We had a good time hanging out as a family.  The girls gave Nana and their Daddy their cards.  We enjoyed the beautifully decorated cupcakes for dessert.

Christmas with a two and a three year old was very fun and exciting this year.   I took the girls to see Santa at the Asheville Mall and they both sat on his lap and both smiled!!!  Addison had said that she wanted to hand Santa a list and not sit on his lap and Kaitlyn said she wanted to sit on Santa’s lap.  But when we got up to him Addison got right on his lap and Kaitlyn held tightly to my neck but then she reluctantly let me put her on his lap.  Addison told Santa she wanted a bike with training wheels and Kaitlyn told Santa she wanted toys.  Kaitlyn had been telling everyone she wanted candy so this was a little different for us to hear.  Decorating the Christmas tree was a fun experience.  Josh usually puts up our artificial tree and I put the lights on and then we decorate it together.  The girls were very excited about decorating the tree.  They wanted to put the ornaments on by themselves with no help so we ended up with many...
